"How could that be? Your brother is still young and loves to play. As a big sister, you should give way to him. Why are you vying for his favor?"
"Besides, if your brother doesn't play anymore, you can play later."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Linlin almost yelled at Xu Jinyi, asking who wanted him to play with the leftovers.
"Madam, the old lady sent someone to say that my cousin will arrive this afternoon, and she specifically asked you to prepare a gift for her arrival."
"He also said that the furnishings at Qingfeng Garden were a bit stingy and it wouldn't be nice for others to see them." Du Juan said.
"Guests are coming, and as the host, I must prepare a welcome gift and entertain them well."
"My husband's salary is not high, so continue to use my dowry. I will see what is suitable later."
"As for decoration, I think my cousin is one of us, so there's no need for all that pretentiousness. Besides, my cousin knows my husband's family background, so there's no need to act big."
After saying that, Xu Jinyi sighed: "I don't know how long my dowry can subsidize me. If it's not enough, I'll be embarrassed to go home and get it."
Fu Shiyan frowned in the dark. He didn't expect that Lin Ze was so useless that he actually used his wife's dowry.
Duke Xu Huguo has such bad taste. What kind of man is he looking for?
He couldn't even support his family, and yet he asked his wife to live frugally and use the dowry as a subsidy.
Judging from what she said, she might be using her dowry for show.
"Okay, since my cousin is coming this afternoon, I'll take a shower first so I can entertain you this afternoon."
Hearing this, Fu Shiyan froze and watched the maid carry in buckets of water. He knew it was time to leave, but he didn't move.
He felt that after he met her, he turned from a gentleman into a thief.
Seeing her revealing the same body as in his dream, Fu Shiyan's body reacted instantly.
That was a feeling I had never felt with those women this morning.
Without his knowledge, blood started flowing from his nose and dripped onto the back of his hand, which was then discovered.
After Xu Jinyi finished showering and got dressed to go out.
Fu Shiyan jumped down and walked to the screen where her clothes were hanging.
He picked up the underwear she had just taken off and sniffed it.
Fu Shiyan's face turned red when he realized what a stupid thing he had done.
As if possessed by a ghost, he stuffed the bellyband into his arms and jumped out of the window.
Knowing that Jiang Hui was coming, Xu Jinyi naturally dressed up and took out all the jewelry that she hadn't worn for a long time.
"Hey, where's my phoenix tassel hairpin? Why is it gone?"
"Why didn't I see the pair of jade bracelets? Did you keep them, Jinxiu?" Xu Jinyi wondered.
"No, all of Madam's jewelry is taken care of by Du Juan, so it should be here."
Jinxiu didn't notice anything wrong at all, nor did she see the murderous look in Dujuan's eyes when she said this.
"But there are obviously a lot of jewelry missing. Could they be missing? Dujuan, did you put them somewhere else?"
Du Juan didn't expect that Xu Jinyi still remembered the jewelry that she hadn't worn for such a long time. Fortunately, she hadn't sold it yet.
I could only force myself to smile and say, "Madam doesn't usually wear those jewels. I was afraid that some servant might get hold of them, so I put them away."
"I'll get it right away."
As she spoke, Dujuan almost trotted out a pile of jewelry packed in a jewelry box from under her bed.
She didn't know whether to take out a few pieces or all of them, and she was afraid that Xu Jinyi would say that the quantity was not enough.
After thinking about it, I suppressed my pain and took them all out.
It was not easy for the Madam to agree to take her as a concubine. Now is the most critical moment and we must not lose the big picture for the sake of small gains.
These things will be available in the future.
This pile of jewelry was obtained bit by bit by Du Juan from Xu Jinyi over the years. She had long regarded it as her own money.
Asking her to take it all out now is like asking for her life.
I can only keep comforting myself, it’s okay, I can get it all back in the future.
"Ma'am, all the jewelry is here."
"Dujuan, where did you get it? Why are you running around sweating?"
"I put it away in the next room. Maybe the weather is too hot." Dujuan tried to calm her breathing.
"Oh, don't keep them in the future. No one dares to steal them. These jewels of mine are all unique. Even if they are stolen, I wouldn't dare use them."
The original owner was very favored at home, and these jewelry were custom-made by the best craftsman in Beijing.
There is no second one.
Dujuan looked unhappy, she had forgotten this.
Xu Jinyi seemed not to notice her ugly expression, and held the hairpin against her head.
It was not until someone came to report that Jiang Hui had arrived that Xu Jinyi walked out slowly.
Jiang Hui drank three cups of tea in the hall and was already getting impatient waiting.
When she saw Xu Jinyi walking in slowly with a lilac long dress and a slender waist.
Jiang Hui stared at the bright face and graceful figure, and a strong sense of crisis arose in her heart.
How could this happen?!
She met her cousin's wife when her cousin got married three years ago.
His face was pale and he looked sickly, with not a pound of flesh on his body.
At that time, she was sick all year round and took medicine every day, so no matter how good the food at home was, she was still thin and weak.
Compared to her voluptuous figure, there is no comparison at all.
How come she looks like this in just three years?
What's up with those two bulging lumps on her chest that are even fuller than hers?
She is so beautiful, but my cousin really didn’t consummate the marriage with her?
Can you control it?
After all, that glance just now was enough to amaze even a woman like her.
She has delicate skin, and her skin is so white and glowing, compared to her yellowish skin...
For some reason, Jiang Hui suddenly became unconfident.
While Jiang Hui was looking at Xu Jinyi, Xu Jinyi was also looking at her.
Jiang Hui came to the door wearing a set of washed-out clothes, which matched her graceful and graceful face very well.
Although she has given birth to two children, her figure is not noticeable, but her plump breasts are well developed.
She is prettier than the dozen or so maids who came with her as a dowry, perhaps because she had given birth to a child.
That charm can be exuded, a kind of fishy smell.
At this time, two children rushed in, hugged Jiang Hui and cried.
Xu Jinyi sat down, watched coldly, and waited for them to start singing.
Jiang Hui burst into tears and knelt down in front of Xu Jinyi, holding her two children.
"Cousin, please adopt the two children as your adopted sons and daughters. Ah Hui is willing to let the two children live with you."
"They have suffered so much following me. I am willing to let them be your children."
"My aunt didn't force me, so you don't have to feel any psychological burden."
Xu Jinyi said with a forced smile: "The two children have lived here for so many days, they are very cute."
"I like it too, but as the daughter of the Xu family, I would never do anything like stealing someone else's child."
